When doing research, don't look where everyone else is.!

You don't have to do what everyone else is doing, but you do have a moral obligation to do what is right in the eyes of God. Treat others the way that you want to be treated, and fight for the rights you have in your heart to fight for. 
No one is perfect, and it is because of this very reason that we sometimes are able to get caught up in popular opinion, which may lead to us acting in life as others want us to, instead of acting in life as we really desire to on the inside. Don't fall into the pressure of pleasing your peers, because if you make your life about pleasing others, you, yourself will never be pleased. 
We are all unique and we all have a variety of talent and skill for many different reasons. Don't live a life in vein avoiding pain, live a life dedicated to seeing yourself grow to who you want to be, so that you may also help others achieve the same thing .. and finally just remember; You don't have to live the same story as everyone else. You actually get to choose. So, Choose your story and make your own destiny.
